Rocky beach on Walnut Creek. A great place for dogs to run loose and play in the less than ankle deep water. In fact, most of the 200+ acre park is a off leash dog park! Look up in the trees downstream and you can see debris from the recent floods.

Saint Marys marsh boardwalk at night. From here, there's a great view of the Saint Marys River, the surrounding marsh, and the Saint Marys waterfront. In the distance to the east are the paper mills in Fernandina Beach. To the south is the glow of greater Jacksonville and to the northwest is the glow of Kingsland. It was very humid this night so that helped to scatter the light, reducing visibility. The Milky Way was only barely perceptible.
